The Arnold Spirit Toucan Guyana Vanilliane is a 45% ABV, 700ml rum that showcases a delightful balance between agricultural character and vanilla sweetness. This rum is produced using pure cane juice, distilled in Saint Laurent du Maroni, French Guyana, and then undergoes a gradual reduction process by the renowned brand Arnold Spirit, from France.
The nose opens with a vegetal and peppery cane character, accompanied by a discreet yet gradually emerging floral and sweet vanilla scent. As the rum breathes, the sweetness and vanilla become more pronounced, offering a comforting, cottony sensation. A hint of lime adds a welcome acidity to the round and balanced profile.
Upon tasting, the rum offers a soft attack with vanilla harmoniously balanced with the rum's aromas. The agricultural identity remains present, with notes of bagasse and brandy vivacity. The vanilla makes a strong comeback in the middle of the palate, becoming very fat and natural-tasting, while small citrus fruits add a touch of freshness.
The finish highlights the vanilla, which is rich, dark, and nearly woody, providing a satisfying conclusion to this unique rum. The infusion of natural Madagascar vanilla pods contributes significantly to the rum's exceptional character, while the high-quality agricultural rum base ensures its overall success.
The unique balance of agricultural notes with sweet Madagascar vanilla, along with its distillation in Saint Laurent du Maroni, French Guyana, makes this rum truly special.
The rum has an ABV (Alcohol by Volume) of 45%, offering a robust yet smooth drinking experience.
Absolutely, its unique flavor profile and high-quality production make it an excellent choice for gifting, especially for those who appreciate finely crafted rums.
It can be enjoyed neat, on the rocks, or as a standout ingredient in premium cocktails, thanks to its balanced vanilla and agricultural notes.
As a reviewer, I find the Arnold Spirit Toucan Guyana Vanilliane to be an exceptional rum that marries the robust, earthy qualities of agricultural rum with the sweet, comforting notes of Madagascar vanilla. It’s a versatile and impressive bottle, perfect for both connoisseurs and those new to premium rums. Its smooth, well-rounded profile makes it a favorite among friends and a go-to choice for gatherings.
